Seawater distillation

The paper describes the results of a feasibility study jointly promoted by Israel Electricity Corporation and Aster – Sowit Division (Italy) aimed at investigation of the possible integration of the low-temperature flash (LTF) desalination technology in existing IEC power stations. The LTF technolog

The objective of this paper is to compare the economics of using solar energy to operate small multiple effect seawater distillation systems in remote areas with the conventional method of using fossil fuels. The particular multiple effect system used is an advanced horizontal tube, falling film sys

In this paper, the application of the direct steam generation into a solar parabolic trough collector to multieffect distillation is proposed and economically evaluated. The thermal fluid of the solar field is pure water, which boils as circulating along the solar collectors. The steam generated dri
